Alright folks, that’s it – we’ve wrapped up the 2015 Richmond Mural Project.

Alright folks, that’s it – we’ve wrapped up the 2015 Richmond Mural Project. We’ve got an awesome prize – one of 3 hand painted collab pieces – lined up for people who take photos of the new murals and tag them #RMP2015 on instagram, so get out there and start taking pics!

Shout out to ArtWhino for making it happen as always, check out the map below for a visual journey through this year’s RMP (We even included a nice biking map)!

If you missed a muralist we covered, or have no idea what we’re talking about in general because you have been living under a rock, then check out this rundown below of the muralists, their new murals, and where they are so you have a shot at the prize!

Do you remember the rollerblading guy with the American flag kit on September 12th? We will never forget the 11th for the horrors, but do you remember the 12th? The 13th? If you do, I don’t even have to say which year. If you don’t, let me tell you a little bit about...

Review | ‘I Love You Because’ Is Pure Joy 🏳️‍🌈

It could be said that Shakespeare invented the rom-com. It could also be said that Jane Austen improved it a couple of centuries later. Between the two of them, meet-cutes, notices of love or rejection arriving at exactly the wrong time, and breathless affirmations of...

Local, Latino and A New Richmond Cosmos

Tucked into the alley behind 2512 West Main Street, a fever dream of the cosmos has taken shape across a brick wall. The mural is the collaborative work of four Latino artists working in and around Richmond: Visibly Hidden, Monolith, Mars, and Sol. A distant Earth...
